Marvel Cinematic Universe - Timeline

and generally, if you buy them the day they release from like walmart or target, they are decently on sale, $20 or so for the combo pack the first day or two.
 
Except they didn't release a DVD/Bluray combo-pack for Thor 2, which I would have probably bought, just for the "All Hail the King" One-Shot They only had the Blu-Ray/3D Blu-Ray/digital combo-pack.
 
true, that one was a pain in the butt. But i was able to get the BluRay/3d/DC for like 18 on day it was released. So that was nice.
 
Plus the fact that all episodes will be release all at once (as Netflix likes to do).. so we will have the Daredevil episodes in the middle of 2015 I presume.

And he confirmed the noir, street and ground level of the Marvel Knights... something we never saw yet in a MCU movie.

Joe Quesada confirms that the Marvel Netflix shows are indeed in the MCU. I'm pretty sure this news. I think everyone assumed they were in, and this is the first actual confirmation. http://comicbook.com/blog/2014/04/27/marvel-netflix-series-part-of-marvel-cinematic-universe-available-for-binge-watching-according-to-joe-quesada/

Actually that was confirmed not long after they announced the shows. Think Feige or maybe Loeb confirmed it.


I am really looking forward to the shows, though. Can't wait to see just how they approach the characters and their stories in the series, as well as how they'll bring them together for The Defenders.

Nice.

Yup, with Daredevil filming starting this summer, I'm sure we'll see Daredevil available on Netflix in Spring or Summer 2015. Jessica Jones will likely air in Fall, 2015, Iron Fist in early or mid 2016, and Luke Cage in late 2016. The Defenders will air likely in mid 2017.
 
So, I was thinking, why on Earth would they call the team-up Defenders? Doesn't really have any basis in the comics to call these guys by that name. Could it be possible that they're planning on including Dr. Strange in the team, after introducing him in his own movie (or introduce him in the series, then tell his backstory in a movie later)? The name would certainly make more sense.

Of course, Hulk would be great to include, but I doubt they'd have the budget to do that correctly. But you never know, maybe they could have a movie if the series is popular enough. So have the miniseries team include the four from the individual shows plus Strange, then include Hulk in the team if there's a follow-up movie. Since it seems unlikely Hulk will get another solo movie any time soon, this could be a great use for the character (besides appearing in The Avengers).

One can only dream.

(Fox have the rights for both Namor and Silver Surfer, right?)

It's certainly possible, but keep in mind the MCU isn't afraid to venture away from the comics. Though the idea of surprising fans by having Strange appear in The Defenders series before a solo film would be great. I can see him acting as sort of a Professor X type role in the group, recruiting them to go up against some villain. That'd be sweet.

Fox has Silver Surfer, Universal has Namor, I believe. And they're never going to do a Namor movie, so eventually the rights will revert back to Marvel (and probably pretty soon), so perhaps he could play a role in a Defenders film should that happen.

New Agents of SHIELD clip reveals an interesting little tidbit about what rights Marvel apparently DOES have.

Yup. Loved the mention of Man-Thing. It's also interesting to note Hill is already working for Stark (and talking to Pepper on the phone). It's also interesting to note that the Congressional Hearings shown at the end of CA-TWS happened very quickly after the battle between SHIELD and Hydra at the Triskelion, based on the several days at most that've passed between the events of Hydra revealing themselves, and where this episode picks up. Especially since May was on her way to see Hill at the end of last week's episode.

Also, I'm thinking Maria Hill mentioning "privatizing world security" is alluding to Avengers - Age of Ultron, and the fact that the Avengers are no longer under SHIELD's umbrella nor can rely on it's backing and funding. Instead, now they're under the Stark umbrella and rely on his funding. :)

I kind of figured Man-Thing was owned by Marvel after the scars on Ellen Brandt (and the usage of Ellen Brandt) in Iron Man 3, but it's great to get confirmation. I hope he shows up somewhere.

It's likely. I doubt we'll see a movie or even TV series, but I could see Man-Thing appearing as an unknowing villain in a future AoS episode, maybe in Season 2. As for Ellen Brandt, I'm pretty sure her scars were a result of being in war. All the Extremis test subjects were former soldiers who'd been injured in Iraq and Afghanistan, and Ellen was missing an arm (if I recall correctly) before the Extremis procedure regenerated it.

Man-Thing was owned by Lionsgate (who made that crappy Sci-Fi Channel Man-Thing movie back in the mid-2000's), so apparently the rights reverted back sometime in the past 8-9 years. It likely wasn't worth it to Lionsgate to re-license the character after the poor reception the TV Film got, and they likely didn't see any potential in a theatrical film either. We'll see what Marvel does.

Now that they've got Blade, Ghost Rider, and Man-Thing back, they could potentially do a Midnight Sons type series, especially once the magic element of the MCU is firmly introduced by a Dr. Strange film. That would be refreshing, allowing them to do an element of supernatural horror in the MCU.
 
I thought Lionsgate didn't own the rights of Man-Thing and Punisher, it was just a loan (as the animated Marvel movies).

Man-Thing vs Daredevil would be cool as they are both concerned by fear.
Why not something in the sewers (like in an Ultimate Marvel Team-Up).

I'd actually completely forgotten about that (Iron Man 2 scene with Hulk news footage in background, IM2 chapter 17 (1:54:07 - 1:56:00) . Hmmmm....I'm gonna have to sit and and re-watch everything to see how to best lay it out.

Sorry if this has been explained before, why can't this scene be put AFTER the campus fight from Incredible Hulk (chapters 10-11), which is the scene shown on the news report in IM2?

It should be. That was my fault, I was doing some re-arranging of the timeline a few weeks back and overlooked that scene in relation to the scene from Incredible Hulk.

Fixed it, should work now (as well as working accurately with the Fury's Big Week comic).
 
Hey guys, first time poster here. I've been following this thread for a few weeks now after finding your timeline on Google. I've been editing the MCU Movies, One-Shots and Shows for a long time now so it's helped iron out some kinks.
I've hit a brick wall now though, and I was wondering if you could help me. (Apologies for the wall of text!)

I'm in the midst of editing Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. around The Winter Soldier, but I keep finding contradictions. Episodes 16 and 17 in particular.

The parts that have definite time placements are:
Coulson and Hand talking about Captain America at the end of episode 17, which places that after the battle in the Triskelion. This also puts the battle with Hydra during the night before the battle at the Triskelion.
Episode 16 isn't so clear cut.

It starts with Garrett and Triplet in France. Then it cuts to Garrett, Hand, Blake and Sitwell boarding the plane. It can be assumed this takes a day or so after, because Garrett mentions his report from France. It also has Sitwell leaving for the Ship at the begining of The Winter Soldier, so this can be placed a day or so before the movie.
Later in the episode it has some of the team in the UK, and the rest scattered over America. Leading to the team tracking down Brad Dourif's character. It ends with Ward in custody on the Plane.
I assumed this took place over the days during the events of The Winter Soldier.

However, here are the contrictions.
At the end of episode 16 May tells Coulson that Fury is back at the Triskelion, which places the events of this episode before or at the begining of the movie, and episode 17 picks up during the final day.
But would Ward really be in custody for 3-4 days?

Anyways, I've rambled enough. I would love to know what you guys think, and if you have any thoughts on the subject please feel free to input :)

It's tough. I'm waiting on the Captain America - TWS to be released on DVD (probably sometime around September - October) so I can sit down and analyze it by the DVD/Bluray chapters in comparison to AoS's episodes 16 to 17.

I'm sure it'll work out. If worse comes to worse I guess we'll have to assume Ward is in custody for several days. There may be another way of making it work, too, but I can't be sure until I have the CA-TWS DVD.

Based on the end of episode 16 showing the scene from CA-TWS with Fury being attacked on the street by Hydra agents and Winter Soldier, I think it's safe to assume that episode 16 occurs during the first two days of CA-TWS. The way I look at it, the day/night thing doesn't necessarily dictate events happening one after the other, as it's possible the location of the plane from AoS may be on the other side of the world or in a timezone 6-8 hours away, whereby it may be early morning in the opening scene of Cap-TWS (with Cap and Falcon jogging and Cap being picked up by Widow for the mission), but night where the plane is at in AoS. This is supported by the fact it's obviously early morning in Washington DC where Cap and Falcon are jogging, but night time where the ship is located (if I recall correctly the ship was located in the Indian Ocean, which is indeed on the opposite side of the world from DC). I'm pretty sure an entire day hadn't passed between the jogging scene and them arriving at the ship, only as long as it took the plane to transport from DC to the Indian Ocean (6-8 hours maybe?).

So it could be looked at as scene with Sitwell leaving the plane occurs during mid to late afternoon or whatever, Cap and Falcon jogging happens early in the morning (or the same day but the time difference places Sitwell leaving the Bus chronologically first), some of the events of AoS episode 16 occur during the time Cap, Widow, and the other SHIELD agents are on their plane traveling to the Indian Ocean, some more of AoS occurs picking up the next day and ending at the same time Fury is attacked on the street and fakes his death.

I'll have to rewatch episode 17 to narrow it's events down more. We'll see how it works out, but unfortunately it's going to be a good 5-6 months before I can analyze the DVD and see how it all fits.
 
You're definitely right with the different time zones, I hadn't even considered that the events of Cap meeting Wilson, the events on the ship and the events with Fury could be one whole day. Nice insight.

I've been working from a cam recorded version so far. I'm too impatient lol.

I look forward to your take on it all though. Especially when you have to place the events at Fury's grave, Strucker's scene and Winter Soldier at the Smithsonian into the timeline.

Well, as shown by the past few AoS episodes, the Senate hearings that Black Widow attends, and the Fury grave scene, likely happen very soon after the battle at the Triskelion, likely within a couple days. As for the mid and post credit scenes, they also likely happen very soon after the final battle, also within a few days after.

Lol, it bugs me having the timeline "unfinished" (though it's never going to be finished as long as the MCU continues, which I hope is a very long time off, and given Marvel's plans running up until 2028 and the box office returns, it's likely to go on for a very long time), so I'm eagerly awaiting the Cap 2 DVD.
